+Before&After - Big Frames into Mirrors

I'm catching up the my post on before&after. Here's another one. These frames were bought back in 2009. See post here. They've been sitting in the storage of all that time until I finally finished them back in summer 2010. I realized I didn't post a before&after so here it is. I spray painted about 2-3 coats of white satin finish. Then we brought them to a glass shop to get mirrors installed. Easy, eh? Mirrors were installed for both of them. I didn't have time to take a photo of the 2nd one...yet.

Breakdown of cost:
frames - $25 for 2 (garage sale)
spray paint - $12 (2xcans Home Depot)
mirrors cut&installed - $75 (local glass shop Vitrerie Raymond)
sweat equity - FREE
==================================
TOTAL COST: - $112 for two gorgeous ornately framed mirror.

Happy dumpster-diving!!!
